Rare case of a paratubal cystadenoma with bilateral hydrosalpinges in an infertile woman

2014 
Abstract Objective Serous tumors can occur on the surface of the ovaries and—rarely—as primary tumors on the peritoneal surface. However, the origin of extraovarian serous tumors is unknown. An unusual case of a serous tumor is presented here. Case report A 34-year-old nulligravid woman presented for evaluation of her primary infertility, with acute abdominal pain. At laparoscopy, a paratubal cyst, independent of the ovaries, was found to be associated with bilateral hydrosalpinges. The final pathology diagnosis was of a benign paratubal serous cystadenoma. Conclusion We present an unusual case of a paratubal serous cystadenoma with bilateral hydrosalpinges in an infertile woman, which was resected laparoscopically..
